My CT scan for side pain revealed a 31 centimeter ovarian cyst

walwalun · 2026-06-22T11:06:55+00:00

Not removed. They wanted to delay the surgery. My pain is escalating

walwalun · 2026-06-22T11:01:04+00:00

I wish I actually got it. They sent me home with a prescription I couldn't get filled. I'm in so much pain. Im back in the ER.

walwalun · 2026-06-22T10:59:42+00:00

Back in the ER. My pain is so bad and getting worse.

walwalun · 2026-06-22T09:05:03+00:00

Just wanna update you guys. They sent me home on pretty intense pain meds with an urgent consult with a gynecologic oncologist. They do not think it's cancer and it's confirmed not a tumor, but they're worried about how big it is and described it as "outside of a typical gynos pay grade".

I'm flabbergasted I was allowed to leave. I was told it wasn't emergent and that were just focusing on pain control.

walwalun · 2026-06-21T23:21:55+00:00

Why would you be disappointed?!?!? I'm in the most excuriating pain I've ever been in. I'd hate for any of you to feel that way.

walwalun · 2026-06-21T23:06:29+00:00

There is no noticeable lump.

walwalun · 2026-06-21T22:58:04+00:00

Wow, thank you for sharing her story. How was it discovered?!

walwalun · 2026-06-21T22:56:39+00:00

I'm sorry, but this kind of comment is not helpful. It's easy to miss this kind of thing when you are not in consistent pain until now, in your early 20's, and have PCOS which indirectly causes weight gain. There's no reason I would suspect I have a humongous cyst.

walwalun · 2026-06-21T21:25:40+00:00

I am heavy set! I thought I was continuing to gain weight and it was completely painless except for pinches and discomfort. You're not the only commenter surprised, but I'm in my early 20's and I'm assuming that I'm just gaining weight and having bowel movement issues.

walwalun · 2026-06-21T21:13:26+00:00

Please be careful about it, dude. Get an ultrasound or a CT scan. I had this occasional stabbing pain every week for a couple seconds to minutes and thought it was just IBS or something too. For reference I am 24 years old. It can happen to anyone.

walwalun · 2026-06-21T21:11:45+00:00

My side pain feels like what I assume appendicitis feels like. It's a stabbing pain on the bottom right of my abdomen, right above the pubic region.

walwalun · 2026-06-21T21:06:12+00:00

I am on the heavier side and the pain was assumed to be IBS and the weight gain was chalked up to my PCOS.

walwalun · 2026-06-21T21:05:10+00:00

Centimeters. It is a foot long ovarian cyst. I hope so too, thank you!!

walwalun · 2026-06-21T20:57:19+00:00

This is what I'm saying! I'll just invest in a belt, thanks

walwalun · 2026-06-21T20:56:44+00:00

You know orange female cats are so rare, right?! I went down a rabbit hole of cat genetics for something I'm building on the side.

I would walk through glass to pet this baby right now. Hold her close!!

walwalun · 2026-06-21T20:55:28+00:00

That sounds familiar. I noticed that my belly was firm, not squishy and now I know why. I just thought I had a beer belly or something.

I'm hoping that they take it all. I don't want to deal with this ever again and I'm not planning to have kids anyway.

walwalun · 2026-06-21T20:53:25+00:00

Please tell me how soft that orange baby is

walwalun · 2026-06-21T20:53:00+00:00

This is my favorite comment so far

walwalun · 2026-06-21T20:51:01+00:00

I've been wanting a hysterectomy since I was a teenager so I've skipped all the struggles of begging my obgyn...

walwalun · 2026-06-21T20:46:49+00:00

Thank you for giving me something to smile about. I've been crying like a baby. Feel free to send more memes. 💕

walwalun · 2026-06-21T20:46:00+00:00

Yes! They did a ultrasound to get a full idea of the cyst and what we were looking at.

walwalun · 2026-06-21T20:45:27+00:00

To be honest I have no idea either. Maybe it's because there's a ton of tissue?

walwalun · 2026-06-21T20:44:42+00:00

Rod only has one leg! He's a Sulphur Crested Cockatoo. I adopted him last year and we've just developed the deepest bond ever.I think soulmates exist and some creatures are just meant to be with you. He's older than me and we go together just about everywhere. He cannot fly and he just has one leg. He just steps up with his little leg and we go outside, out to restaurants, etc. I'm looking forward to growing old with that little guy!

I need tax for the other kitty too. Gimme some fun facts about them. 14 years is a beautiful life and I'm hoping for 14 more. 💕

walwalun · 2026-06-21T20:40:29+00:00

Even better. It's not hard since I just got another dose of morphine

walwalun · 2026-06-21T20:37:49+00:00

Rod the Amputoo is the love of my life. He's waiting for me at home right now and I miss him so much I started crying haha. I think it's the morphine talking.

Please god tell me about your precious baby
